long arm quilting a house quilt

I got time to quilt another of Ann’s quilts, this one was supposed to be at the bottom of the pile, but I realized I needed beige thread for the other quilt and had to order that as I was running low and I didn’t want to load the quilt and run out midway and then have the quilt tie up my frame, so instead I loaded this fun house quilt and used white thread.

 

 I quilted feathers around the outside border, a small ribbon design on the inner border and a larger ribbon on the sashing, then feathers in the corners and meandering around the appliqued pieces and on certain parts of the houses I went over the house a bit because they are rather big.

 The houses are adorable, they are kind of like the 4 seasons. well 5 seasons I guess, but still each house has it’s own theme and feel to it.

I really like this blue and red one. Maybe this is summer?

 and fun details on this halloween one, a little spider on the front door and I think the door handle is an eyeball!

 a cute blue and white winter house too

 Then a fun pastel spring house

 and a fun Christmas one with candy canes and a wreath

 I actually teased Ann by texting her this picture first and asking if she wanted to see the front!

She loved it!
